Harriet the Spy has a secret notebook that she fills with utterly honest jottings about her parents, her classmates, and her neighbors. Every day on her spy route she "observes" and notes down anything of interest to her: I BET THAT LADY WITH THE CROSS-EYE LOOKS IN THE MIRROR AND JUST FEELS TERRIBLE. PINKY WHITEHEAD WILL NEVER CHANGE. DOES HIS MOTHER HATE HIM? IF I HAD HIM I'D HATE HIM. IF MARION HAWTHORNE DOESN'T WATCH OUT SHE'S GOING TO GROW UP INTO A LADY HITLER. But when Harriet's notebook is found by her schoolmates, their anger and retaliation and Harriet's unexpected responses explode in a hilarious way.
Harriet the Spy refuses to become ruffled when an unidentified person starts leaving disturbing notes all over the quiet little beach town of Water Mill. She’s determined to discover the author of the notes. And she drags her friend, mousy Beth Ellen, into all kinds of odd and embarrassing situations in her efforts to reveal the culprit. Observing in her own special, caustic way with her ever-present notebook, Harriet the Spy is on the case. But will she be ready to face the truth when she finds it?Praise for Harriet the Spy® and Her Friends Harriet the Spy ®“Harriet is . . . wholly relatable whether you’re eleven or several times that age.”— EW.com Harriet Spies AgainBy Louise Fitzhugh and Helen EricsonWinner of the Edgar Award for Best Juvenile Novel“Ericson has perfectly captured the voice and pacing of Fitzhugh’s original novel in a seamless rendering of a fresh, enjoyable story for today’s readers.” — School Library JournalHarriet the Spy, Double AgentBy Louise Fitzhugh and Maya Gold“Harriet the Spy is back, and Gold does a credible job of maintaining the special character and her crusty charm.” — BooklistThe Long Secret[ STAR ] “Written with subtlety, compassion, and [Louise Fitzhugh’s] remarkable ability to see inside the minds of children.” — School Library Journal, Starred Sport[ STAR ] “A worthy successor to Harriet the Spy —and that is high tribute.” — Booklist, Starred
